"Alice sang in the church while we signed the register and she had most of the congregation in tears. It was a really special moment and something we'll never forget."

"Rory played at our multi generational 40th wedding anniversary party. He arrived promptly, was very communicative and did a fantastic job playing his sax, covering hits right through from the 50’s to the present day. Our guests loved his music and he made a significant contribution to a successful party and fantastic day. I would highly recommend. I am a very satisfied customer. Very many thanks Rory."

Hi Nicky, Wow, I’m absolutely thrilled by your kind words—thank you so much! It was truly a pleasure to be part of your special day and contribute to such a memorable celebration. Your guests were fantastic, and it was wonderful to see everyone enjoying the music. I’m especially grateful for the testimonial and your generosity with the tip—it means a lot to me. I’ll be sure to share your lovely feedback with Sarah-Jane and add it to my profile. Please don’t hesitate to give Sarah-Jane a shout if you ever need music for another event or if any of your friends are looking for a saxophonist. I’d be delighted to work with you again in the future. Thanks again, Nicky, and all the best to you and your family. 😊 Cheers, Rory

"BEST BAND EVER!! Lilac and her 6pc funk band played at our wedding in Summer 2021, and Rem DJ'd. Both sets were absolutely fantastic! In the build up to the wedding, Lilac and Rem were incredibly helpful in guiding us through our playlist, identifying crowd pleasers and song collections which worked incredibly well together. They were both full of ideas and suggestions and left no stone unturned in their preparations! Planning our evening set with them was a real giggle! They were very clear in outlining their requirements on the day, and recommending what timings would work well. They were also incredibly understanding, cooperative, and willing to be flexible as we waited to plan our wedding around COVID. On the day, Lilac and the team were full of energy and this reverberated around the room, creating a truly special atmosphere! Lilac has an amazing, soulful voice and so much stage presence! The saxophonist was also outstanding!! They kept the dance floor filled all evening and full of noise as we all sang along. Lilac and the team's set was incredible, and they kept going beyond the two 45 min slots to all of our delight! Rem's DJ set to conclude the evening was incredible! He struck a really great balance between old school classics and more modern, higher tempo tunes. We'll remember excitedly dancing along to Avici and Craig David, and finishing off with a sing along to Wonderwall, Sweet Caroline and Angels, with all our best friends surrounding us, for the rest of our lives! Thank you so much for a massive contribution towards making our wedding the best day of our lives! "

"Thank you so much to Groove Dynasty for playing at our wedding, they topped off an amazing and very special day. The band was awesome from the first point we made contact! Everything was brilliant, from the songs, Kevin and Brooke’s voices, the band and we loved the saxophone! They created an atmosphere that brought everyone to the dance floor, from all generations, everyone was smiling and having such a great time. After the band finished their last song, everyone began singing Mr Brightside and the band just picked it up and joined in, such an awesome moment! Thank you for everything, we would definitely book them again or go see them play."

"Lilac, Remko and all of the band are simply brilliant!! Wholeheartedly recommended! We hired Funk With Us to play at our wedding party. From the very first enquiry Lilac was super friendly, very considerate of what we wanted, flexible and always there to answer our questions and offer good suggestions on the song lists, set-up, etc. And the performance on the night was amazing!! High quality sound and musicianship, but more importantly the whole band did a fantastic job in creating a fun party vibe which got everyone dancing for hours. All of our guests commented for days afterwards how great they were! Thank you Funk With Us, you guys rock!!! ?"
